Diagnostic

• Dental Examination
  If you think you have gum disease, Dr. Foncea advises that you get an exam with a practicing dentist. A clear and comprehensive periodontal exam will include the measuring of all the pockets around your teeth, x-rays and an evaluation of your bite. The combination of all the results of the earlier exams will help to establish the extent and the type of your infection.
• X-rays
• Oral Cancer Screening
  Our practice is constantly welcoming new patients who want to take advantage of the many cosmetic solutions we offer and enhance their smile and their appearance by custom smile design. We accept patients for emergency dental needs and can have them quickly evaluated in our state-of-the-art dental practice. For many people, the objective is to keep their own teeth for life, and we love partnering with them for their cleanings, oral cancer screenings and yearly examinations. Whether you are looking for a new dental home or are interested in investigating the possibilities of a custom smile design call us to schedule an appointment at 865 973-9899. Please ask about our new patient special.

Preventive

• Teeth Cleaning
  Dental Cleanings – Professional dental cleanings from a hygienist will leave your teeth looking and feeling fresh and clean. The main purpose of a dental cleaning is to improve overall health and the longevity of the teeth. Using special tools, the hygienist will remove plaque buildup which is a leading cause of decay and gum disease. Superficial surface stains can also be removed from the teeth during a dental cleaning.
• Dental Sealants

Restorative

• Fillings
  While restorative, the composite resin material used in our fillings is a great step up from old-school metal amalgam fillings. Composite resin can be shaded to match the color of your tooth so that nobody even needs to know you have had a filling put in place!
• Resin Composite
  Using the same material used in fillings, composite resin is perfect for correcting a tooth that has a minor chip or cracks, is slightly misshapen, or is not uniform in length with your other teeth. Your dentist will use composite resin and match it to the desired color, then shape it as needed before applying it to the tooth. Once applied to the tooth, it can conceal a chip or crack or be shaped to correct the appearance of a misshapen tooth. Once applied, it is bonded to the tooth for a long-lasting cosmetic solution.
• Veneers
  When talking about beauty, features such as symmetry and uniformity matter. When you look at a man’s or woman’s face, symmetrical faces are seen as more attractive than those that are not. This same concept applies to your smile. When you have teeth that differ in characteristics, including shape, size, length, and color, this can detract from a smile that could be considered attractive. Drs. Pablo Foncea, Mariko McCall, Kathryn Beil, and the team at Sequoyah Dental Arts in Knoxville, Tennessee, understand this and offer beautiful porcelain veneers to those seeking a more uniform or whitened smile. With dental veneers, our dentists can transform and customize your smile to fit your idea of what a proportional, beautiful, and natural-looking smile should look like.
• Crowns
  Dental crowns are a solid restoration choice for many dental issues. Some issues which a dental crown can assist with include...
• Bridges
  Dental bridges are porcelain restorations used to replace missing teeth. They use the adjacent teeth for support to hold the false tooth in place.
• Dental Bonding
  The process of veneers begins with a consultation visit. In some instances, other solutions may be more desirable, such as composite bonding, orthodontics, or a simple teeth whitening procedure. However, when patients are not appropriate candidates for these treatments—or for those looking for faster, longer-lasting options— porcelain veneers may be the best solution.

Endodontics

• Root Canal Treatment
  At Sequoyah Dental Arts, Drs. Pablo Foncea, Mariko McCall, Kathryn Beil, and our team offer many restorative treatments to repair your smile to a beautiful and healthy state. Dental crowns are one of the most common restorations we offer here at our Knoxville, Tennessee office. A dental crown can be used to restore a tooth severely weakened due to extensive decay or has undergone root canal therapy. Dental crowns can also be used for cosmetic purposes as they can cover up issues, including discolored teeth. A dental crown is designed to cover the visible portion of a tooth so that it is not exposed to further damage. You can walk away with a dental crown in just a couple of easy appointments!

Periodontics

• Deep Cleaning
  Treatments for gum disease primarily involve the removal of the bacterial infection from the affected area or areas, and there are several ways that this can be achieved. In a mild case, Dr. Foncea starts with a general cleaning while in advanced cases, focused and deep cleaning efforts are made to give back a healthy condition to the affected areas. Sometimes, even antibiotics may be used in conjunction to cure the patient completely.

Prosthodontics

• Dentures
  Finding dentures you love can be life-changing. When you have missing teeth, it will undoubtedly impact your life and how you live it. Not only will certain actions become more complex, but they could also affect your confidence. Many of our patients tell us that they wish they had not settled for cheap and fast denture options in the past. They are amazed when we tell them about the sturdy, custom dentures made available at our Knoxville, Tennessee office. Our dentists take great satisfaction in the positive lifestyle change they can help patients make through custom-made dentures.
